Hawaii SB1634 authorizes the issuance of general obligation bonds for the Board of Water Supply to install two groundwater monitoring wells. The funds will be used to monitor the condition of the aquifer and alert in the presence of contaminants from the Red Hill facility. The bill aims to assess the impact of past fuel releases on Oahu's drinking water supply. The monitoring grid, consisting of up to one hundred twenty-two monitoring wells, is critical to understanding the migration of contaminants and informing remediation planning.
